Thursday, March 14th

Luckily, tomorrow is the last day of classes before break.  I cannot wait to be able to relax.  I am not going anywhere warm for break, but I am okay with that.  On Friday, I am going to Boston for a couple of days and from there I am going to New York City.  It should be a lot of fun!  Up to this point, I am doing well in my classes.  In my human ecology class we got our progress reports and I could not believe the curve he gave us.  The class average is a 50.  My average is a 60, which is the equivalent to a A-.
Senior Seminar class is really testing my creativity!  At first, I was nervous because I do not think I am a very creative person, but I ended up enjoying it.  If you give me an idea then I can be much more creative than sitting there with no ideas.  Today, we had to come up with a haiku.  The first emotions that I felt were anger that it was so nice out a couple days ago and today I had to wear boots and my winter jacket.  So, I wrote about the weather.

When is Spring coming?
The cold weather has me running.
To Florida I go.

I am not really going to Florida, but I would like to!  It was challenging to come up with lines with 5 or 7 syllables.  Most of the statements I wanted to make were more than what I needed.  Once I made my first one, it was easier to come up with more.  I had to get in a open mode and let everything else go.  Once I did that, I was able to relax and come up with ideas.
